Electrophilia

Without even seeing a trailer, Electrophilia caught my attention quite immediately. Lichtenberg scars have always been a fascinating sight. These are the lightning-like patterns that appears on the skin after a person has been struck by lightning. They are intricate, delicate and one could also say, quite beautiful.

Electrophilia is a character-based drama that delves into the question of existentialism. Ultimately Ada takes a path of self-rediscovery and experimentation after her accident, and this leads to a hot affair with a doctor who shares a similar experience to her own.

Electrophilia comes highly recommended for it's originality alone.

No pun intended - the movie is high octane ... well not really! High voltage on the other hand ... you really have to suspend your disbelief! We do have a "philia" for many things of course, so while I did not do any research if there is something along the (power) lines that is suggested here ... well it's a movie so just cutting it some slack to say the least.

The acting is good and everything does go sexual too - which you could either tell from the poster or quite early on watching this too. Hot and sizzling - but not exactly the way you may think an expect it to be ... well you know what I mean ... interesting story and quite a few nice twists and turns along the way ... still could have been more ... powerful (ok I'll stop now)
